Estilo Weddings was launched early in 2007 by Maria Ryan. The inspiration for the store came when Maria, drowning in a sea of white taffeta and lace, was unable to easily find bold and stylish items for her own wedding.

Born and raised in the Philippines, Maria’s sense of style has been influenced by her native country’s East meets West culture. She finds inspiration in bold colors, vibrant patterns and modern lines, all with a distinctly feminine flair.

Maria decided, "Women don't want to drop their unique style just for tradition's-sake on their wedding day. They want to show it off!"

So she set out to create an online store that celebrates women's creativity and unique vision. Items have been chosen for their bold style. And a special section, Get Inspired was created to explore diverse wedding styles and show off unique Do It Yourself wedding projects.

As part of her mission to celebrate women, Maria gives back a portion of all profits from Estilo Weddings to Women of Vision, a non-profit organization committed to lifting up women in need all across the globe.
